What Causes Severe Abdominal Distention?

Thanks for your time. I m a little frustrated I am 51 years old never really sick. Last year I had to have a stent caused by 75% blockage and I have damage to lower part of heart and like 30% on other side. While going through all of this my belly began to bloat they took test and said it wasn t fluid so I one wanted to help or didn t take time to find out . Well I quit going and now it s been about a month my feet swell and won t go down and my stomach got as big as a 9month pregnant lady I m normally like have a lottle tummy???
